Has anyone else got "THIS PERMIT HAS NOT BEEN PAID YET." on the bottom of their permit? I put in my card details and stuff and seemed to have worked but it has that.

Welcome Josh. Where abouts do you fossick? Im going home to adelaide over easter and picked up my fossicking permit for MT Crawford, looking forward to doing some fossicking agin where i first learned to.

That is quite badass.

Hats off to anyone going out of their way to clean up other peoples filth. Takes a special someone to take time out of their own day to clean someone elses rubbish. Well done.

I think expanded aluminium mesh is harder to get than the gold. Ive been to many, many places. the best anyone could do was to order in a whole sheet at $200+ dollars. If you find a place let me know and i'll do the same.

Been promising the Girlfriend we would go camping somewhere, I was planning on going to Oallen to test my first Highbanker ive made and make a camp trip out of it at the same time... I'm now thinking twice with all the crap i've heard about the place which is unfortunate.

It certainly was a lot of hard yakka for me to find my first couple specks of gold but it was my first time ever panning after only learning to do it earlier that day from youtube videos. I was still pretty wrapped to find my first colour... unfortunately i hit the container i put them in off...

Im from adelaide originally and im going there for easter, i plan on doing some fossicking around mt crawford and kuitpo forest. (need permits of course unfortunately.) did my first ever panning from buckets of dirt i collected from mt crawford. back when i had no idea what i was doing. i...

Thats great news. Good job everyone involved with pushing to get things like this to happen.

i heard oallen is a decent place atm. but its just what ive heard i dont know from experience. but i plan on going there for my first time using my highbanker im working on. its only like a 2.5hour trip from Campbelltown.

cheers for the input. Ive got a homemade yabby pump for crevicing following plans i had seen online. i was just curious about these items after seeing them in bunnings.

Today i started constructing my first high banker. after breaking 4 cheap, made in china drill bits for the pop rivet holes. i went and bought some decent quality drill bits. Happy how its coming along so far. next i need to work on the legs. im thinking of using box aluminium like wal has used...

thats sweet. nicely done.

Talk about workshop envy @ dwt.

Has anyone purchased these from bunnings and tried them for crevicing? i almost bought em today but thought i'ld ask if people have tried them first, if no one has i might have to be the first to try them and post results. http://www.bunnings.com.au/sontax-extendable-syphon-pump-hose_p3100024...

Hey tone where did you score the expanded mesh from? i cant find any anywhere. the only places i have found can only get it in by the sheet.

hey big, just out of curiosity what are you using to power the 3700gph bilge pump, looking for battery specs. cheers.

Thanks for the advice Digginholes. looks like i'll be investing in a 1.5" to 2" pump for my current high banker. And in the near future make a smaller portable sluice box to use with my 12v bilge pump.

Hey Pete any chance you can share a couple pics of your setup? im currently in the process of making my first sluice/high banger and im using a bilge pump setup. Im currently using some of wals ideas and a few others ive seen around on the net and mashing them into one. will it work? who knows...

Awesome i might have to give masters a visit, cheers.
